Is it mathematically possible? We'd have to win everything right?

It's mathematically possible as well that I will have sex with my wife every night for the next 10 days

Will it happen though? Negative

Definitely possible, I did a ladder predictor and with us winning every game we were in.

I reckon we could probably drop one more maximum and then would need results and a percentage kick.

Have Sydney week before finals so they may rest some, Essendon and Adelaide away the other tough ones.

If we knock off West Coast over there next round then it will get interesting.

In your head, in your head they are fighting,
With their tanks and their bombs,
And their bombs and their guns.
In your head, in your head, they are crying...

Yes if we were to win all our remaining games and other results went our way but the likelihood of that happening is zero!

Rich:  WCE, GWS, Ess, Adel, St K, Syd

Coll: Adel, Port, WCE, Bris, GWS, Haw

Ess: WB, Syd, Rich, WCE, GC, Carl

GC: Bris, St K, Carl, Port, Ess, WCE

Adel: Coll, WCE, Bris, Rich, North, St K

That would leave all five clubs on 12 wins with two taking spots #7 & #8 in the finals. The AFL would love it. 


The reality though is we'll win 2-3 of our remaining matches and finish with 8-9 wins in 11th-12th spot with pick 7 or 8 in the draft  :-\.

We're coming 9th again
The downhill skiers coming 9th again
With nothing at stake
we start to rack up wins
To stop the rattling tins
but when still a chance we'll poo our pants
take fright , take flight and cringe
Like the Tigers of Late
We'll seal our own fate
and get a - HEAD of OURSELVES!
from coming 9th again

We won't beat Essendon.

We may beat WCE and then knock off GWS, the media will start to talk up the serious chance of us making it if we get over the Bombers. It'll be a big game and the Bombers will be up for it.
Go Tigers!

The Run Home: Matt Windley predicts every club’s finish to the AFL season

Herald-Sun
July 16, 2014


12. RICHMOND

24pts 100.1%

R18: West Coast (Patersons) W

R19: GWS (MCG) W

R20: Essendon (MCG) L

R21: Adelaide (Adelaide Oval) L

R22: St Kilda (MCG) W

R23: Sydney (ANZ) L

Matt says:
Surely not? Richmond is daring to tease its fans once more, having defeated the previously rampaging Port Adelaide at the weekend. And a win in Perth against West Coast will only heighten the obscure belief that the Tigers can make a late run at the eight. It’s not the most daunting of runs home for the Tigers — outside of a trip to Sydney in Round 23 — but Damien Hardwick’s men will have to win their next five games and hope for an extraordinary fall from grace by each of the Bombers, Magpies, Suns and Crows to have any chance of making it in.

The cows are so overrated. We will flog them and West Cokes on their home ground and if we play like we did against Poort, we are a chance to win every game and Sydney will prob rest a few and throw the last game to us anyway.

I think we will beat Essendope. They lost to St Kilda. They're sheet
